As a licensed cosmetologist of more than 20 years, and a cosmetology instructor, I frequently see clients with scalp issues resulting in flakes. Often, people seem to think all flakes are dandruff, and that's not always the case. In some instances, it can be dry scalp, sebhorreic dermatitis, psoriasis, or eczema. Each of those conditions should be treated differently, and often, treating them incorrectly can cause conditions to worse. Hopefully this video arms you with information so you know what to do, or when to seek medical assistance.
If this video proved helpful to you, please let me know in the comments!
Take care, God Bless, and stay Glam,
I know I love you boo!

@GetGlamFam Hi. Could you share which braids are best for someone with Seborrhoeic dermatitis and maybe eczema?
I was diagnosed with Seborrheic Dermatitis last year. They put me on Ketoconazole but that doesn't work for me so I use Rosemary and Mint shampoo. I also have burning scalp, which I cannot tell you how extremely painful it is. This along with Alopecia I did not develop until about 5 months after I recovered from Covid. Thank you for your videos.
For scalp conditions, I would say either cornrows, or singles. The key is keeping the scalp clean on a regular to minimize irritation.
Be sure to avoid oil on the scalp @ravenrose6672 and I can definitely understand aspects of thinning/alopecia after Covid. That can happen anytime the body goes through something traumatic.
Make sure you are getting your nutrients from healthy foods, if that’s not possible, chat with your Dr about nutritional supplements they would approve of. Diet can also play a huge role in hair loss.
I wanted to come back and say thank you for the Royal Oils recommendation. It is JUST what I needed. I had gotten where I wasn’t making it to wash day without severe itching and flakes and even after washing I was still seeing falling flakes. This cleared it very well and I’m sure with continued use it will only get better. You are a Godsend!
Stop that, this wasn’t boring at all! I appreciate all this info. Nothing worse than a dry scalp w/ seborrheic dermatitis.
Thanks so much for your feedback! I appreciate you watching!
Or a scalp experiencing Psoriasis 🙄
@@jessymorel923💯
Is anyone else itching watching the amazingly informative video? I bet we are all scratching our heads.💖
😂😂 it’s worse when I’m talking about lice and things. Thanks for watching!
Lolol I did right after. 😅
😂 Yes, I was trying to refrain from scratching!
Thank you for the heads up, i'm going to stop watching now at 0:36... i can't... i'm already itching just from my imagination. 😂
Thank you for this vid. It really helped me a lot.
I am a family medicine doctor who actually teaches a whole hair and scalp lecture- this was very good!
Thanks so much for your feedback!
I would say you were more informative than my doctor about my psoraiasis. Thanks so much. ❤
My absolute pleasure! I appreciate you watching!
I have been struggling with flaky scalp for years. Your explanation of the difference was mind blowing. It all just clicked for me. I finally realized that I probably need medical intervention to correct my situation. Thank you so much for this video.
Thank you for showing with your own scalp with the dry scalp, it helped solidify for me that I definitely have dry scalp.
My pleasure! I’m so glad it helped!
Another possibility for the oatmeal-type flakes is CCCA, and again you need to see a dermatologist especially if the flaking is accompanied by firey itch, soreness, scabs, and or heavy shedding. This was not boring at all it was much need information!
Linwood, this was really informative and so well presented! The teacher in you really showed through; I hope your students realise how lucky they are.
I found your channel some 6-7 hours ago with a YT suggestion for your how to care for grey hair and I've been binge- watching ever since. You are the only professional I've ever seen to make a distinction between grey and white hair! I've seen/heard/read "curly hair needs moisture!!!", "grey/white hair is coarse and dry and needs all the moisture you can give it!!!" so often that I was starting to believe it... Trouble is, as a caucasian wavy/curly redhead who has been going white (redheads don't seem to go grey, we go directly to no pigment white) since my early 20's, I couldn't relate what everyone said to what I felt. My white hair is fine, soft and won't hold the curls like my red hair did. I stopped colouring my hair 6 years ago and now I'm about 60% white. I'm in my early 50's so my once dense hair is also thinning all over thanks to menopause. I kept throwing moisturisers at it and I now think the only thing that saved me from hygral fatigue is that my hair is pretty low porosity...
You've given me things to think about and I will be going forward with a new understanding of what's happening on my head! Hopefully I can get some curls back because this limp, somewhat wavy but volume-less look is not for me. 😢
Thank you!
I am giving my hair a break from relaxers. When you mentioned the chemical burns ever after you apply base cream on the scalp still burns, I have been there. They left horrible scabs on my scalp and I was losing hair. Its been a few weeks and I noticed my edges are slowly growing back, I drink more water, and I wash my hair every sunday and give myself a roller set. I saw a huge improvement. This was helpful and informative. Thank you for educating us on this subject.
Yeah the burning when there are scalp conditions present are no joke! I hope the break ends up being a massive help to you!
My scalp is really sensitive but what really helps is oiling my scalp daily for about five days before doing my relaxer. Just giving my scalp a light oiling. This works well for me
I have scabs and little bumps on my scalp from when my mom used to perm my hair and use relaxers. They hurt like crazy when i get my hair braid or twisted.
This was not at all boring! This was very enlightening! Thank you.😊
Excellent video!! Thank you for sharing your knowledge and being so responsible by pointing out when we need to see a doctor. God bless you!
thank you so much for this video! this was such a great explanation and the visual of salt, grits, and oats made it very clear!
Top notch informative content. Basically said specifically what my stylist of almost 40 yrs advised about my scalp.
Not boring at all! Extremely helpful! Thank you so much for this breakdown and utilizing the grains for visualization. A true professional through and through!
This was extremely informative!!! Thank you so much!
This is so helpful and I may just have to print this info for my salon! Thankyou thankyou. Love ya x
This is awesome. Thank you. I've been struggling for years and honestly don't go to stylists often because they don't really like touching my head during a flare up. This is so helpful.
Just head to say I’m proud of you! You’ve been posting for years and it shows your dedication and passion. Thanks for all your help
You are certainly a gifted teacher. Thank you for that very valuable information. We love you too. ❤
That royal oils line by from head and shoulders is the truth along with the conditioner. I also got ketoconazole at 2% from my son doctor. Never put oil on his scalp cause it's feeding the yeast. I always don't put heat to his hair/scalp. I spray witch hazel after twisting and cutting his hair. Listen to his advice if you want help. ❤❤❤❤❤ Not boring at all.
Thank you for all you do.
My pleasure! Thanks so much for watching!
Incredibly informative video! I’ve seen a dermatologist for months and have never gotten any resolve. Thank you ❤
This is the best planation of the differences in these scalp issues that I've heard. Imma keep moisturizer and a light scalp oil on my head. Fortunate to just have dry scalp in the winter.
Thanks for the demonstration & examples!!!! Very helpful boo!!!!
My pleasure! Thank you so much for watching!
Thank you for answering my question. This was sooooo helpful. You are an great teacher!
My absolute pleasure! I’m so happy I could help. Thanks for watching!
No no no, this was not boring at all. It was very helpful. I am going to try the Thayer Natural Remedies on my scalp. Thank you for sharing 🥰
I have been waiting for this video from youuuu…. Thank you!
You are “spot on “.
Thank you and Happy New Year🎉🙏🏼
My absolute pleasure, happy new year to you as well!
The use of granular foods really was inspired. Thank you this was soooo informative. Stay "boring" we are learning so much.
This was amazing. I learned so much.
I'll 1st say the video was NOT boring at all. I dont have dry scalp or dandruff, however, the video was very informal so that if I do have any of this issues I will remember watching this video and come back to it for reference. Thank you so much for all of you videos, I have found them all very helpful. Be blessed my friend, love you too ❤
Linwood you teach so well. Great info. 🎉🎉🎉
Thank you for this video. I have all 3 and never had anyone explain what may make symptoms worse. I definitely will be making changes and following up with my dr
I appreciate this video. My son has been suffering from a scalp condition off & on from since he was around 4. He is now 18. It causes discoloration on his skin around his edge. We’ve been to dermatologists many times. I’m not sure what step to take next. However, this tutorial is very informative.
Great way to explain things!
I love your hair. Thank you for the info. Am a silent watcher. I never comment but wanted to comment today. Happy Holidays
Thanks so much for watching and I also appreciate your comment! I hope the video had useful information for you! 😊
Thank you for this information to us, especially details on how we might fix it.
This was so helpful, I’m glad I already scheduled a first appointment with a dermatologist 😅
Thank you for this video! So informative.
Thank you for everything! You are brilliant
This was awesome! Excited to use the witch hazel when i get my cornrows redone. I use salicylic acid on my oatmeal like flakes and it has done wonders!
New subscriber! I am loving all of your videos. My son has long wavy hair and just started asking me to braid his hair. He has a dermo for his scalp issues and this video also helped! ❤ Thank you
Thank you so much, I really needed this! ❤
My absolute pleasure! So happy I could help!
Thx u for the great information. Have a blessed n wonderful new year
Thank you so much for this enlightening information. Knowledge is key. I appreciate you Sir. 😊❤
Such a pleasure! Thanks so much for watching!
EXCELLENT CONTENT...THANKS FOR SHARING THESE GREAT TIPS.
Thanks so much! My pleasure!
THANK YOU LINWOOD 🥰🙏🏾❤️
My joy! I appreciate you, thanks for watching and commenting!
YOU & T-Sal changed my life!!!! I'm on my second big chop hair journey and it's been going great. Thank You!
My joy! I’m so glad to hear of your progress!
Who is T-Sal? Please, send a link so I can get the channel.
Excellent information? Thank you! 🙌🏾
Thanks so much! It was my joy to share it!
You give out information in such a great way. I get dry scalp flakes, waxy dandruff and those larger than oat -I've peeled a "flake" off my curly hair with a fine comb that had all the holes for where the hairs were all growing through it- style pieces. Currently it's all under control because I'm on an immune suppressant for something else but I'm ready with the witch hazel and need to get the royal oils for when I come off it to try to keep it from getting to where it was. It's not something I'd believe my doctors to be knowledgeable about, where I live we only visit if you have had a major issue for a week and it was an emergency yesterday, I don't think they know about things that don't meet that category.
Informative and the visuals were helpful.
Great Great Great vid. Not the least bit boring. You always come with the hair heat. Love you too boo
This video was helpful,thank you for this video!!!!!!!❤❤❤
Fantastic Video! Thank you!
Thank u very much for this vid upload and happy new year to u sir!!🎉❤
Thank you this was very informative.
This is very helpful, social media had me believing Dermatitis is the only scalp problem, when it can simply be dry scalp in need of a oil or grease. I have dry scalp currently because it’s been cold and ready for snow, I live in the desert.
You have helped me so much. Because I had salt like dandruff and I wasn’t doing anything about it. Now I do give my scalp a little oil not to much because I find when I use too much or my own oils are enough my scalp will react. So balance is everything. Thank you.
Omg this helped me tons. Thanks
My pleasure! Thanks for watching!
Thank you so much. This is so helpful
My absolute pleasure, Thanks for watching!
Thank you for the info!
Great information, very helpful thank you.👍💙
My pleasure! Thanks so much!
@@GetGlamFam you are very welcome.💕💕
Thanks for this information! How often/when should one use a clarifying shampoo?
Thank you for your gems of information ❤ Its good when you notice things on your own and you get information that confirms it. I have a dry scalp but I also get allergies and have a very mild case of eczema too. So, at any time it could be any of those but now I know how to identify it.And I've notice heavily fragranced and heavy oils on my scalp doesn't work for me. I'm in a process of trying to figure out what brand, type of shampoos and conditioners work for me. ..Thanx again
My pleasure, I hope you are able to find a regiment that suits you well!
Thanks for sharing 👍 it helpful 😊
Such an informative video! 👏 i needed this in high school, i could not figure out my dandruff since my scalp was oily but my ends were dry 😩 thankfully through trial and error. I just have a regular scalp that occasionally gets dry now
I’m so glad you were able to find a regiment that works for you!
Jojoba oil works amazing for all scalp conditions. Many dandruff shampoos w tar cause the cuticle layer to lay flat and when you quit using the scalp condition is worse. My brother and nephew had this issue and just after using jojoba oil for a few days their scalp was all better.
Jojoba oil can be helpful in many cases. Not in the case of seborrheic dermatitis though, excess oil is the issue in that instance.
Informative thank you!
My joy! Thanks for watching!
What’s sad is that I remember my beautician did this with the witch hazel & my scalp felt so much better. Thank you, thank you, thank!!!
helped heaps thanks
I wish you did video consultations. this was a fantastic video but now I'm not sure if my daughter's scalp has grits or oatmeal! thank you for sharing your knowledge!
Your hair grows fast... 🙌🏾🇿🇦❤
Love your illustrations. I appreciate you
This was filmed before I cut my hair, thanks so much for watching! I hope the content helps 😊
@@GetGlamFam it did. I am the one who asked about the plants and a sensitive scalp. Braiding my hair now(thanks to your tutorial vids) and I rinsed the fibre I'll see if this helps... I'll let you know boo 😊🇿🇦❤
@leratomabuela3661 awesome! I hope the braids turn out beautifully!
@@GetGlamFam thank you. I'll send a pic to your email 😊
You have really saved me thank you Sir
My pleasure! Thanks for watching!
Thanks for this video I needed
This was so incredibly helpful! I fall into the oatmeal category 😭Seeking medical expertise ASAP but also going to try that witch hazel in the meantime.
I truly hope it helps you out! Thanks for watching and best of luck!
This was a great video! You mentioned relaxers. Can you do a video on relaxers and black women’s physical health? There are studies that show its link to cancer but I couldn’t find any significant data to support that. Do you think it’s the lye and no lye relaxers are better? If we should stay away from relaxers then what’s the best way to keep our hair straight without using heating irons?
Love this video very informative. Will castor oil help my stress spot grow? Blessings and Blessed 2024 to you and your family🙏🏾🎉
Whew!! You did your big one with this, the oats are a perfect representation of seborrheic dermatitis. I struggle with seborrheic dermatitis. I was diagnosed by a dermatologist years ago. I get it behind my ears as well. Seborrheic dermatitis is one of reasons I stop getting relaxers. The problem is the medicated shampoo dries out my hair, any tips for replacing the moisture. I am already dealing with hair that won't absorb product , gel, creams, etc. Every stylist just charges me for a curly cut and offers no advice!
Excellent! Very thorough and informative!
Thanks so very much! I appreciate you watching!
Can you please do another one on how to wash the 3 different... "high-needs" scalp types? 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Very informative ty❤
Hi Linwood, Happy New Year 🎉❤💥
@GlamFam Thank you so much for the info! Can I get any of the Thayer's or does it have to be the Lemon one linked? I see Target has 12 different ones and my 13yr old son hates anything scented but has scabs and flakes from scratching that I believe is from the gels someone used trying to lock his hair. I never put anything but natural oils, shampoo, and water in his hair so his scalp isn't used to alcohol based or heavily scented products. He would literally throw tantrums and swore it smelled horrible back when I would put coconut oil(the food grade type)in his hair or the lotion on his body.
I'm glad you did this video again because I remember seeing the witch hazel in the store, I thought of you, but I couldn't remember what it was for, lol! I know I've seen this video before but it is a great reminder😊. The only thing I am unsure about is the alcohol because my hair is kinky..
I'm going to make sure I save this video...
I am going to try a moisturizing product by a youtuber that I watch. Have you ever heard of Glow in Peace?
The alcohol is balanced out by the humectants in the Thayer’s witch hazel (aloe vera and glycerin) humectants draw moisture in 😊 I’m glad I was able to give a refresher! Thanks for watching!
@@GetGlamFam Oh okay. That is good to know 🥰 Thank you! I use the regular Witch Hazel to clean other areas of my body, but I won't use that one...I will try the other one with the humectants. I like your demonstrations. I have dry scalp, and not surprisingly, I just washed my hair 4 days ago. I treated my hair with henna and Amla, I put it in a deep conditioner Aussie. Then I DC'd again w/Aussie, and then I noticed a scalp itch. Not surprisingly, my scalp is dry, and I may be allergic to AUSSIE.
I love how informative and straightforward your videos are. I’ve learned so much from you thank you ❤❤❤
Thank you! I believe I have Seborrheic dermatitis. I have a dermatology appointment but they're booked until May! Headed to Walmart/Target to get me some Thayers! While looking online all I'm finding is face toner is that the same?
Thank you spot on 🎯just saying 😊
I was getting Oats size dandruff for months (terrible itching) suddenly and couldn't figure out why. I stopped using the only different/new product my relaxer technician was using and a MERICAL happened lol, no more flakes or terrible itching. The product was (Razac Moisturizer hair cream) for those who might want to know. It kept my strands very Moisturizer which I loved but my scalp hated it.
Oh and there was no way of getting the Moisturizer off your hands with out soap. It left a very heavy grease/wax on your palms
Sounds like it was oil heavy and you are probably prone to seborrheic dermatitis. I’m glad you were able to figure it out!
Man the effort it took to get that off my hand was like it was engine excavator grease.
I'm happy I figured it out tou, suffer for almost a year
For protective styles like knotless braids and etc, what gel do you recommend?
Thank you!!!!!
yes i see it. thats been my problem.
Thayers is good for the underarm also especially if you suffer with deodorant not working and switch them out often
Dope information🥰🥰🥰
Great advice and wondering if you have any advice about a pimple on my scalp that never seems to go away. It scabs and honestly I pick at it because it’s annoying. I’m wondering if it’s a wart. I noticed it some time ago after a trip to the salon in the same area I asked to have trimmed with clippers. Over the counter treatment or medical attention?
You didn't ask me, but I would suggest seeing a dermatologist or at least your GP. It's probably harmless, but if it isn't, it's better to address it sooner than later.
I would agree with @nca4794
I would rather a medical professional look at it and let you know based on their medical expertise, than me attempt to give advice with limited information. Advice would vary greatly based on it being a pimple, a wart, folliculitis, an inflamed sebaceous sac, or something more serious.
Seeing a physician can help you get an answer, rather than making shots in the dark.
@@GetGlamFam thanks! Keep up the excellent work. I’ll get a medical opinion soon.
This is why I can't oil or grease my scalp. It will itch and become irritated. I have seborrheic dermatitis, especially in the back. The witch hazel does work.
I realized I was putting oil on my scalp plus my scalp started sweating and the back of my head in the morning..my head hurt and was tender. Immediately I did a Paul Mitchell clarifying shampoo and had some medication for fungus and put that on the scalp. Immediately I started feeling relief and will do it for a week. I realized I can't do that I now just put any oil from mid to end only. I believe the oil I was using was just too thick plus the sweat was not a good combo. I definitely believe the last one you mentioned I had..seborrheic...
Definitely sounds like a possibility of seborrheic dermatitis, especially if thick oils are causing outbreaks! I love Paul Mitchell’s clarifying shampoo!
@@GetGlamFam exactly i didn't see any flakes i just know it was warm to the touch compared to the parts of my scalp and it was sore. Three days using the topical and that area is cool and no longer hurts. I need to stick to basics. i have to realize these carrier oils are stronger. Thanks as always with your content.
What about Glover's Mane? Is it good for this?
It was not boring at all. It was helpful 😊😅
Aloe treatments are superb for dry, excema and/ seborrheic dermititis scalp !
1.Scoop the aloe gel from aloe leaf with spoon(faster and easier). After youve peel skin from one side of aloe.
2. Put in blender. Add nothing to it. Blend to liquid.
3. Strain it (to avoid difficult to remove aloe pieces from hair.) - I use a nylon nut milk bag to strain for efficient results.
No more stockings(too time consuming).
4. Add to hair/scalp from root to tip. Drench hair and scalp with aloe. Can be applied to wet hair or dry hair.
5.Put on a shower cap, let soak for for 30min to 1 hour. - I discovered byvtrisl that he longer the soak, the longer scalp remains squeaky clean between wash days even with applying hair moiturizers.
6. Wash hair+ scalp with the same aloe soak!
Or rinse out and use a fresh batch if thats necessary for your scalp.
I wash my hair with the same aloe thats been soaking, it gets mildy sudsy (naturually). It removes build up, flakes, odor, and adds moisture and shine with a consistent routine.
It is a natural cleanser, moisturizer, exfoliater, is antifngal, antibacterial, plus stimulates hair growth.
4. Repeat step every 1-2 weeks and watch scalp remain dandruff/ flake free, if caused by excema, dryness or seborrheic dermititis. Must maintain routine to see results.
For Psoriasis = I do not know. I have excema/ seborheicc dermatitis, a type of excema.
Aloe is also good for face for xlesnsing, for smaller pores, clearing acne and black marks from acne + moisturizes.
Aloe is also very good for digestice system/gut health etc. Does not taste good. Hold nose, chew and swallow or blend chug, dont taste, wash down with fresh sweet fruit. Or add to smoothies.
